    Q
    After the outside of the stink bug trap is covered with stinkbugs, how do you discard the bugs?
    Can you buy a new outside sticky surface or do you have to buy a new lamp?
    A
    You can purchase a replacement cartrige to use once the cylinder that the trap comes with is full.  A screw will allow the top where the plug is to detach from the cylinder allowing you to discard the used portion of the trap and replace it with a new glue cartridge.

    Q
    Can the stink bug trap be mounted outside in the elements?
    Also, what is optimal range from house to avoid swarming and still be affective?
    A
    The Strube Stink Bug Trap is meant to be used indoors.  You could use it outside if it was protected, like under an overhang.  You would not want the trap to be in direct sunlight or rain.  This trap will attract stink bugs in the general area, so the optimal range would be wherever you have a protective overhang away from the house.

    Q
    Does the stink bug trap have a light sensor or do you have to manually turn it off during daylight hours?
    If placed in the attic and the lamp runs continuously, what is the life of the lamp?
    A
    The stink bug trap does not have a light sensor.  It turns on and off by plugging it in a wall socket and unplugging it.  The stink bug trap uses a standard light bulb and can remain on continuously for months at a time.  The bulb can be replaced easily if it needs to be.  The stink bug trap will catch stink bugs day or night.

    Q
    Does Strube Sticky Stink Bug Trap catch boxelder bugs?
    We have a serious infestation outside and every winter they make their way in the house.
    A
    The Strube Stinkbug trap was specifically designed to trap stinkbugs and uses a stinkbug pheromone to help lure the insects to the traps. The Strube Stinkbug trap has not been tested for boxelder bugs and we do not know if boxelder bugs would be attracted to the trap.
